	A space sci-fi tabletop wargame in the vein of [[Dropfleet Commander]] and [[Battlefleet Gothic]] that /tg/ started discussing and arguing about in late 2020. With the caveat that it doesn't actually exist. Or at least, didn't. Congealing from collective autism, Distant Broken Stars is slowly taking form. Addendum: Or not, there appears to be no active general as of 2021/2/14, and the last thread had a measly 16 replies. This project is ~~probbably~~ dead, or they all retreated into a discord server.

	Emerging from the Toxic world of Yorkhai-2, these stout creatures live and die for gas. Due to their unique Ammonia atmosphere, they are seldom seen without their suits. Each Mesekai world is ruled by a baron, and the entire Mesekai space is ruled by the Great Baron. Due to the unique, rare atmosphere of their home planet, the very act of breathing is a priviledge to be earned; the more gas you have, the wealthier you are. And what better way to show that off than filling your suit with it and prancing around like a living balloon?		Emerging from the Toxic world of Yorkhai-4, these stout creatures live and die for gas.

	Originated from a peculiar planet orbiting a black hole, the Voidborn are a unique race where their unnatural home planet granted them an increased knowledge of gravity. Though not aggressive towards other species, they are very secretive and prefer not to talk much with non-Voidborn. Discovered after the Tyar stumbled ~~by accident~~ on one of their gravitational tethers, they'd much prefer to be left alone and continue to expand their network instead of wasting time and resources on conflict.

	== The Ppuk ==		== The Ppuk ==
	The Ppuk originated from a race of clone custodians, spawned to maintain the ~~left behind~~ starships of a vanished civilization called the Heritage. Unfortunately for the Ppuk, being able to maintain a Heritage ship is not the same as being able to repair one. Heritage-tech, while powerful, is equally fragile and inscrutable. The Ppuk therefore have had to learn to improvise. Enter their defining shtick: screamware, wetware that begs for death. So what if your spaceship is made from impossibly advanced parts you could never hope to fathom? Just keep shoving in flesh and cybernetics until it works! By using harvested organs (sometimes entire people) and technology, the Ppuk have found a way to prolong the lives of their ships, albeit by turning them into grotesque abominations.This ethos also extends beyond their ships. The Ppuk will not hesitate to augment themselves, both individually and collectively as a civilization. Over the centuries the Ppuk have subsumed dozens of races into their fold, in roles from command to janitorial. It is worth stressing that the Ppuk are not a monolith, but a mosaic. While their desire to sustain their ships and protect the Hollow Suns that birthed them are universal, how they go about that varies from one sub-faction to the next.

	These bird people were actually the subservient species of their home planet: only after they were genetically uplifted and then mistreated, they could become fully sapient and capable of reaching for the stars. They hate slavery and bondage, and their society is structured such that the distinction between "royalty", "nobility" and "~~commonry~~" is one of mere ~~responsabilities~~ and of comfort, not a rigid hierarchy. They lost their homeworld of Danatt to the Tyar, and now they are forced to live on ships and the few planets still ~~udner~~ their control.
